As a wife and mother on a busy farm, I like family-pleasing recipes that are simple, says May Anderson of De Valls Bluff, Arkansas. This is a favorite of ours that came from Liz Cazer, a member of the local 4-H club that I lead.
Ingredients:
1/2 cup chopped onion
1/2 cup chopped sweet red pepper
2 tablespoons butter
1 can (14-1/2 ounces) diced tomatoes, drained
1 cup water
1 cup uncooked instant rice
1/2 to 3/4 teaspoon garlic salt
dash cayenne pepper
1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
Directions:
1. In a large saucepan, saute onion and red pepper in butter until tender. Add the tomatoes, water, rice, garlic salt and cayenne. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover and simmer for 5-10 minutes or until liquid is absorbed. Sprinkle with cheese. Yield: 4 servings.
